Chapter 32: I DON’T WANT HER TO BE MY REGRET
Only heavens knew what would happen if the two of them were left alone. It was very dangerous. Especially after the chaos that almost transpired less than an hour ago.
"Zander..." Pyro tried to talk some sense into him. He already reminded him countless times not to provoke Zenith further than necessary, but this morning, he clearly had stepped out of line and almost created chaos.
However, Zander was still the king, and Zenith might be able to deny him. But aside from his twin brother, everyone else fell into the same category as the king’s subjects.
Axel hoped Pyro could dissuade the king, but the royal beta only managed to call his name before he relented and usher all the people out of the bedroom instead.
Seeing this, they didn’t have any other choice, but to leave as well. Praying there would be no blood spilt in their absence.
When it was only the three of them with Dawn still unconscious, the room became eerily quiet. Despite saying there was something he wanted to talk about with Zenith, Zander remained silent.
Only after a quarter of an hour had passed that the king finally spoke, but even then, it was not about the problem at the dining hall.
"People from the other continents tried to weaken us from inside. I found a traitor, a warrior. He has been sending information to the outside world." Zander approached the bed, but Zenith growled dangerously, warning him not to take another step closer, which made the king sit down on the seat nearby. "I need them to believe that they managed to fool me."
"You should have killed the traitor." Zenith caressed Dawn’s cheek. He listened to what Zander was saying, but at the same time, he put his focus on the woman in his arms. Her body was cold and she looked pale.
Was she that scared?
Now that he was calm enough, Zenith could tell that Zander didn’t really mean to kill her. He knew very well when his brother intended to kill someone.
